Insect Evolution is a casual mobile game for passing levels; you are a little ant, lost in the desert, and the journey home is far away. You have to pass all the levels to find your family, but it is not easy. On the road you need to eat insects smaller than you to grow up, but at the same time don’t be eaten, be careful of insects larger than you and stronger creatures.
